About

Resting on 8 lushly landscaped acres just at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Walnut Lane Inn is located in Lyman South Carolina, between Greenville and Spartanburg. The grounds of this circa 1902 cotton plantation home are entered through a long drive under a canopy of walnut and crape myrtle trees. The property also plays host to huge English boxwoods and a large variety of traditional southern plantings. Walnut Lane Inn is also surrounded by great area shopping. Whether you are searching for that special antique from the many shops, or looking for a bargain at one of the many outlet malls or flea markets, all are located within easy driving distance from Walnut Lane Inn. Also located nearby are many fine universities, concert facilities and a host of tourist attractions. With Asheville NC and The Blue Ridge Mountains only a 55 minute drive away, spend the day shopping or exploring, then return to us for a quiet evening. You won't be disappointed.

The room my husband and I stayed in was very comfortable and roomy. David was a very gracious host who took time to sit and visit with us.

What an experience! Driving up the tree-lined driveway...and coming up to this amazing, old plantation house...it's a one-of-a-kind experience! The owners are gracious. The food is delicious. Everything was fantastic! We will definitely be back!

True Southern Charm

History and charm come together with a stay at Walnut Lane Inn Bed and Breakfast. As we drove up the treed lane, and viewed the huge house, we knew this was something special! We were greeted at the front door by our host who made us feel so welcome with his casual but professional demeanor. We took advantage of the remaining daylight to enjoy a walk around the beautiful property before we settled in. Music, coffee, homemade cookies, and more added to our stay. Our room was lovely, clean, and peaceful. Breakfast was truly gourmet! We look forward to staying again and highly recommend the Walnut Lane Inn Bed and Breakfast.

This B&B was the perfect touch to our trip!

My husband and I visited SC for the first time and stayed at the Walnut Lane B&B and would stay there again if we go back to the area. From beginning to end we had the nicest stay imaginable! Hoyt greeted us at the door and showed us around the charming Victorian house. We worked out our breakfast/coffee schedule and were enlightened to the many sights and places to eat in the area. Our room was beautiful, clean and even had a blow dryer if needed! The canopy bed was very comfortable and romantic. The view outside our window was stunning with the beautiful grounds in full bloom (we stayed in the Orchard room). Hoyt cooked us some very gourmet breakfasts that were delicious and filling. The graciousness and kindness of our host was wonderful and we would not hesitate to stay there again in the future. The Walnut Lane B&B made a great trip even better!!

Got Married here!

I got married here. We were the first military wedding that was ever conducted here. Let me tell you, it takes a special type of person to be able to handle a group of Marines. The owners of this establishment WERE GREAT! We have stayed here multiple times since. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful. My wife was estatic about the service we got here. The food they prepare here, whether it is lunch, or the complimentary breakfast, is fantastic. The owners here know what customer service means, and go absolutely above and beyond to ensure a pleasurable visit. I would recommend Walnut Lane for a romantic getaway, wedding or any other event that you can think. You will not be disappointed.

Very Nice Place to Stay

From the time we arrived, our needs were met by David. Very nice guy, and a very nice place. The grounds were beautiful and the driveway was like Gone With The Wind. The price was reasonable for the rooms. We stayed in The Orchard Room, definitely a pretty view of the gardens. Next time we would want to try a different room on the other side of the house. Just for a change, they are beautiful as well. I would recommend this place.

Perfect Lunch

Although we have previously stayed at WLI, today we could only visit for lunch. The peach tea was a very special treat, and our sandwiches and fruit were devine. It is no wonder that it is difficult to get a table here!
